Well since summer is officially here and many places are hot, including here in the Northeast I thought we should start with a classic refreshing thirst quencher. When there is no better place to sit than an open porch with a warm breeze blowing, the classic New England Raspberry Lime Rickey is my drink of choice. The recipe could not be easier. It must be served very cold with ice cubes.
Ingredients
- 1 lime
- 8 fluid ounces of plain seltzer (soda water)
- 1 (1.5 fluid ounce) jigger raspberry syrup
Directions
- Fill a tall glass with ice. Squeeze entire juice of 1 lime into a glass, and then drop the lime into the glass. Fill glass nearly to the top with seltzer & top with raspberry syrup. (Other syrups may be used in place of raspberry if so desired. It can be made into an adult cocktail by adding alcohol, but I am a purist and prefer the above traditional recipe.)
